  I believe it’s mostly illegal for both parties, but in practice less often enforced for the downloading party, as this enforcement would require too much resources for the enforcing side.

  To give concrete examples, downloading pirated material is illegal in both the U.S and in Sweden, and afaik the latter is on par with the rest of the EU.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Speedometers are not allowed to display a lower speed than the vehicle is running at all under EU regulation - see eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=… § 5.3

  Displaying a speed slightly higher than actual speed is common and an acceptable margin of safety, such that if you are driving at the speed that the speedometer shows, you are more or less guaranteed to not exceed the speed limit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The amount you are allowed to drive over the speed limit is in fact 0mph (0 km/h for us Europeans).

  Tolerance of violations of this is a sign of a deeply broken society

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fart kontrol⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  ‘Fart’ does refer to speed occasionally, but the key here is that it’s always called ‘Hastighetskontroll’ in Swedish. Note the double ‘L’ in ‘kontroll’ and the compounding of ‘hastighet’ and ‘kontroll’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fart kontrol⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is either Norwegian or Danish.

  It’s true that ‘fart’ means speed in Swedish, but in this context ‘hastighet’ would be used (~‘hastiness’).

  Wild claim to make without backing it up with anything. Additionally, with no grids being fully non-renewable at this point, and everyone trending towards renewables for economic reasons, this is just complete garbage to be honest

  How is Daniel Ek a nazi? That’s a wild take if I’ve ever heard one.

  I’d be impressed with any model that succeeds with that, but assuming one does, the complete works of Shakespeare are not copyright protected - they have fallen into the public domain since a very long time ago.

  For any works still under copyright protection, it would probably be a case of a trial to determine whether a certain work is transformative enough to be considered fair use. I’d imagine that this would not clear that bar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is Not⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think anyone would consider complete verbatim recitement of the material to be anything but a copyright violation, being the exact same thing that you produce.

  Fair use requires the derivative work to be transformative, and no transformation occurs when you verbatim recite something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is Not⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s extremely frustrating to read this comment thread because it’s obvious that so many of you didn’t actually read the article, or even half-skim the article, or even attempted to even comprehend the title of the article for more than a second.

  For shame.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is Not⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  …no?

  That’s exactly what the ruling prohibits - it’s fair use to train AI models on any copies of books that you legally acquired, but never when those books were illegally acquired, as was the case with the books that Anthropic used in their training here.

  This satirical torrent client would be violating the laws just as much as one without any slow training built in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Delicious⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In Sweden, where cinnamon buns are from, the use of this kind of glaze does not exist - we use pearl sugar instead.

  Also, the concept of Soggy Biscuit in Swedish is called ‘Runka bulle’, which loosely translates to ‘Wank Bun’, where bun by default refers to a cinnamon bun. So anytime we see a cinnamon bun with glazing, this is the only thing that comes to mind.
